Grandmothers, Mothers, Daughters...

I have recently changed my focus a little when it comes to scrapping, I certainly still use current photos, but more and more I am spending time in our old family albums and creating layouts of our history and heritage.

I think I also mentioned that I have upgraded from Elements 6 to Adobe CS4, quite a leap, lol. So I am revisiting some of my Jessica Sprague digital classes using CS4 to improve my skill level. Thought it would be fun to share a layout with you all...

This LO begins with Mary, my great grandmother, followed by my sweet Mama, Audrie. And then there is a snap of me at HS graduation, followed by my beautiful daughter, Cristina and her daughter Sophia Maria.

The Way I Walk

I see my mother walking

My feet secure

and firm upon the ground,

The way I talk,

I hear my daughter talking,

And hear my mother's echo

in the sound.

The way she thought

I find myself now thinking,

The generations linking

In a firm continuum of mind.

The bridge of immortality

I'm walking -

The voice before me echoing behind.
